Ever heard that saying "Let go and let God"? Easier said than done huh. Well, apparently that was the lesson of the weekend for me. I sent my oldest off to sleep away camp for the first time. My baby has her first loose tooth. And topping it off, while at her first away camp my girl got her first set of stitches, without me there. Now, I am a pretty relaxed mom when it comes to injuries. I have never been the type to wrap my kid in bubble wrap to prevent the slightest scratch.... but I must say, this one unnerved me a bit! I mean, when your baby is hours away and you get a call from the coach, you know something is up. Is it completely terrible that I was thankful that the call wasn't because she was screwing up the routine or her skills and they needed me to give her a talking to? I actually felt some semblance of relief upon finding out that it was a "minor" injury and that she was in completely competent hands. What was the injury... oh you know, the common everyday doing a backhandspring over another girl in a pyramid and the head to head collision busted the skin at the eyebrow. Oh, you mean your darling doesn't do that often? Oh well, anyway... I am glad to have my sweet daredevil home safe and sound. I still think she's beautiful... even with that huge shiner!
Paisley also lost her first tooth! My, my... lots of firsts for mommy this weekend :-)
